Milwaukee
Brakes for the Proposed AISE 7/800 Motors
Special Industries Development Mr. C. W. Warner, Manager July 2, 1965
".
This letter is a supplement to my letter of June 7, 1965,
,
under the subject "Brakes for Motors Designed to New Stand
ards". I understand that the'question has been asked whether
the brake can be dropped one frame.size (keeping the same
torque) as is proposed in the. change from the #600 to the
#800 mill motors (keeping the same horsepower) . As pointed
out in a discussion before I wrote the letter of June'7*
.
there is that possibility; but a more logical solution from
the design standpoint is to rearrange the sizes of brakes used
with the motors.
'
,
Page 2 of my letter of June 7 lists several assumptions
made in analyzing brakes to be used with the #800 motors.
Those assumptions still hold, but a more detailed explanation '
of .section l.A. is now desirable. The NEMA brake standard
IC 1-20.21 is primarily based on the PRESENT NEMA Industrial
Control Standards parts 43 and 44 for Cab and Floor operating
cranes. These standards state that the electrically.operated
brakes are to have sufficient torque to hold at least full load
motor torque. Thus, in the present standard setup for the
NEMA-AISE brakes with the #600 motors, the ratio of brake
torque to F.L. motor torque ranges from 1.01 to 1.72., I par
ticularly stress the PRESENT standards which permit brake
torque to be equal to F.L. motor torque because, since the
letter of June 7/ I received a copy of Mr. Thom's letter of
June 4. In that letter he states t-hat NEMA is considering
changing the Industrial Control Standards parts 43 and 44 to
specify in part "The holding brakes for hoist motors with
control braking shall have a rated torque of not less.than
150$ of the full lead hoisting torque at the point where the
brake is applied". Note that this is not F.L. motor torque I
I am quite sure that NEMA-AISE will set up brake torques based
on a minimum percentage of F.L. motor torque rather than on
a minimum of 150$ full load hoisting torque.
.
The following discussion is based on brake torque being not
less than 100-& F.L. motor torque in accordance with present
NEMA Standards.

for each of the proposed #800 motors.
